Fights that were just Stinkers !!

Alvarez-Lara was a decent fight.

 

I recall the fight for the interim HW championship bout between Hasim Rahman & Monte Barrett just stinking up the whole joint something awful. They were friends and neither wanted to trade blows. Horrible match.

mayweather vs baldomir

 

Audley v Williams 1. Definitely the worst fight I've seen live.

 

They happen all too often to name, but at the same time, I tend to find some amount of appreciation in almost all of the big fights even if massive deuces.

Recent big time fight that I threw a gathering for was Rigondeaux vs. Donaire. Needless to say, nobody left that night with a higher opinion of boxing than they had going in.

 

Naz vs Soto was horrible. it wasn't Naz's fault though, he was doing his thing in the first round. no, it was Steward who told him he "wasn't working his magic" so to use the jab in the conventional way he taught him. well, you saw the other 11 rounds. they were awful. we did get a body slam in there though.

Rahman vs Ruiz. strangely, Rahman was intimidated by Ruiz so put in a horrible performance. it was just grabbing and holding all night.

i love Lewis, but his fight with Tua could have been more watchable. i know that was in part Tua's fault due to being well and truly tamed, but Lewis could have at least let his hands go more and give Tua a good going over.

EDIT: Wlad's whole career, apart from a few fights. stinking going to a whole new level.

 

Duckweather's career with the only exception being the N'Dou fight, its the only Duckweather fight i have watched more than one time.

 

hopkins vs jones isnt great either

 

The first fight was a masterpiece, the rematch sucked.

 

there was no drama or swings in momentum or punches really i guess it was technically good though

 

Top of my head was bradley vs alexander. SO much hype for a unification bout between two american champs and that fight just stunk up the joint.

i know ishe smith isnt a big name but seriously every time that guy steps up against real comps he just chokes and the fight becomes a snooze fest
